2025-202 CSAS Executive Welcome
Message from the Canadian Society of Animal Science (CSAS) Executive

Dear CSAS Members,
As we step into a new year, we are filled with anticipation and pride. This year marks a remarkable milestone — 100 years of the Canadian Society of Animal Science (CSAS). For a century, CSAS has been a voice for Canadian animal scientists, supporting innovation, collaboration, and excellence in animal agriculture. This centennial is not only a celebration of our past, but a launchpad for our future.
As we commemorate this legacy, we also look ahead with a clear and ambitious vision. In 2025, transparency and engagement are top priorities. We are committed to making our governance and decision-making processes more open and accessible, so that every member feels informed, heard, and valued.
To enhance the benefits of CSAS membership, we plan on exploring:
- More frequent and focused networking events and discussion forums;
- Access to exclusive professional development resources and mentorship opportunities;
- Greater recognition of member achievements through awards and member spotlights;
In parallel, we are beginning to implement strategies that support our long-term goals:
- Increasing the visibility of our members’ work nationally and internationally;
- Maintaining our independence as a Canadian society, while continuing to build strong, mutually beneficial partnerships — especially with our colleagues at the American Society of Animal Science (ASAS).
Together, we are laying the groundwork for the next 100 years. We thank you for being part of this journey and encourage you to engage, participate, and help shape the future of CSAS.
Sincerely,
CSAS Executive
